Thanks, Lucien. This package is from the extras repo. Does that make a difference? Also, I understand what you're saying. But (and this is not to you in particular, rather to "the system") rather than having to join yet another mailing list just to report a problem... and then send an email to everyone on that list, why couldn't the package give an email address like bugs@[whatever_repo] to send a report to.
